Mary’s Bio

Growing up, my family has owned a lot of pets over the years from all kinds of situations. We have owned big dogs, little dogs, giant dogs, dogs with attitude, special needs dogs, and five dogs at once at our maximum! We have also owned MORE cats. Fluffy cats, big cats, tiny cats, skiddish or slightly feral cats, indoor cats, out door cats, and nine at once at our maximum! We are currently fostering two sick kittens that will likely be special needs animals for life.
I get along with all dogs and cats and having grown up with them I am confident in my ability to care for them - feeding them, walking them, playing with them, and loving them! I am physically active and I would not mind making your dog a bit more physically active as well. I have never had a problem with a dog or a cat, even when the owners say they might be hard to handle. Cats usually bond with me pretty quickly as well. All animals have their very own personality and I try to respect and adapt to each animal's needs.
I have basic experience with horses. I am a novice rider. I can preform basic chores in an equine environment but would like to have guidance to ensure safety for everyone. Other farm animals I have little to no experience with but I am always looking to learn.
I am also experienced in caring for fresh water fish, small mammals, and small reptiles.
